Abdominoplasty Preparation

It is considered you are in surgery from the moment you arrive to the surgical area until you have sufficiently recovered from anesthesia. Before surgery, your surgeon, anesthesiologist and the nursing staff will meet you in the pre-operative area, to discuss your medical condition and answer your questions.



The anesthesia


What kind of anesthesia is used for abdominoplasty?

Abdominoplasty is performed under general anesthesia with intravenous sedation and inhalation anesthesia. You will sleep through the entire operation, feeling no pain and remaining absolutely relaxed. The section about Anesthesia provides complete information on this medical practice along with recommendations and instructions.


How long does abdominoplasty take to perform?

Depending on the severity or complexity of the case, abdominoplasty may take approximately 2-3 hours to complete, but it may take longer if other procedures are also being performed at the same time.

Surgery time for abdominoplasty depends on the technique used, whether it is performed along with mastectomy or post-mastectomy. According to your case, your doctor will inform you approximate time of surgery.

Hospitalization

Will I require hospitalization?


Because abdominoplasty surgery is a complex surgical procedure, a short hospital stay may be required. Depending on the complexity of the procedure, your surgeon might recommend a stay at the surgical center to observe your recovery progress.
In this way, Dr. Nieto can monitor your recovery and provide after-care.




Preparation for surgery

 
 
For abdominoplasty your surgeon may recommend to have a shower or bath with an antiseptic substance 2 days before the surgery.
 
 
Preoperative markings are done with the patient standing upright in front of a mirror and also with the patient lying down. A pinch test is performed to determine the amount of excess skin to be removed. Asymmetries and scars will be considered. Patient preparation includes treating the surgical site before surgery, using appropriate antiseptic agents for skin preparation.
 
 
In the operating room the intravenous therapy or IV will be initiated. The IV is the giving of liquid substances directly into a vein. Through a needle you will receive saline solution, anesthesia, and other medications you may need during surgery.
